4 out of 5 stars Garou in Chains?.......2006-02-02

My predecessor made a very pertinent remark. Garou is an exact opposite of Ms Dion. He started his career in Quebec barrrooms as a soul/R'n'B singer and his covers of the classics (like Wilson Pickett's "Mustang Sally" or "In the Midnight Hour") are really stunning. And even the standard, "Celine-like" pop songs of this collection, he gives them - thanks to his unique voice and passionate delivery - a new quality. He is decidedly better then most of his material (my favourite being "Adieu" - his interpretation makes me think of Jacques Brel). I consider him a great singer, one of the best I ever heard and it's a pity he associated himself with Ms Dion/Mr Angelil. The reason fot it is very simple - they promised him an international career. But his second - anglophone - album enregistered in 2002 and announced several times was never released and it looks like he made all those concessions for nothing.
And for better, more sincere, Garou one should turn to live "Seul avec Garou" and his second francopohone album "Reviens".

4 out of 5 stars A romantic trouble-maker and rule-breaker.......2006-02-02

Garou strikes me as a good-natured rougue. For those tho don't speak French, Garou means "warewolf". He sings about racy issues like gambling and pedophilia, but he manages to put a spin of innocent fascination on all his work. I believe that in real life he the same as he is on stage. The only thing that makes me uncertain of his sincerity is his affiliation with Celine Dion. She is notorious for singing "commercial" songs that do not come from the heart.

5 out of 5 stars Great French-Canadian Singer!!.......2005-06-22

I first heard this man sing, about four years ago, on a world music award program. It took me two years to find who it was, and sang the song "Seul". And I am so glad that I kept looking!
Garou has a truely unique voice; very powerful, manly and a little rough. Even if you don't know French you will enjoy the feeling he puts into singing, and once you know the lyrics it will be that much better.
If you really want a treat watch his live concerts, either the last tour on DVD, "Garou live a Bercy". Or his just finished tour on "Routes".
I love all his work and highly recommend all three albums!

5 out of 5 stars This is a great album!!.......2003-06-30

When I studied in France in 2001, Garou was huge (maybe still is?) and you heard his music everywhere. Now everytime I listen to this album, it brings back fond memories. I love almost every song on this album (not too fond of Criminel and Gambler though). You'll love this album too if you're into pop ballads like those of Celine Dion. The lyrics are so beautiful, but even if you don't speak French, the music alone is worth buying the album. Garou has a very unique, sexy voice (and image :-)) and I would say that this album is definitely worth your money.

5 out of 5 stars just another review.......2003-04-08

Garou is an extremely talented singer! It was his role in Notre Dame, which is brilliant by the way, that led me to listen to Seul. His voice is low and gravelly but it's beautiful and pure masculinity in my opinion. Perhaps some of the songs on the album are a bit too "pop-ish" but give the man a break - it's his first album and I think he did a great job with it. Anyway, the songs aren't as important as the way he sings them - with a lot of passion and heart! I'm enjoying it :)

1 out of 5 stars LIVE already ?.......2003-03-05

GAROU, the vocalist who wants to go by on one name.

Guess that GAROU (meaning WEREWOLF) views himself on the same level as MADONNA. On this CD "GAROU" tries too hard to impress the listener. He over sings (a la MICHAEL BOLTON) almost every note of every song sort of like a werewold whaling at the moon. Plus, it is much too early for him and his label SONY to place a LIVE RECORDING on the market when the artist has only ventured out with one studio CD of original material.

If you're searching to obtain a great FRENCH POP recording, I strongly suggest anything from "SYLVAIN COSETTE" or "BRUNO PELLETIER". Bruno is a currently one of the strongest male francophone vocalist on the planet. He has a tremendous vocal range that blends right into the solid pop/rock material supplied by his label.

5 out of 5 stars Magnificent!.......2002-11-14

In the French speaking world, Garou is well known. For the English market, he is the best-kept secret. Prior to being discovered by Luc Plamondon for the role Quasimodo in "Notre Dame de Paris" which had made Garou an overnight sensation in France, he was happily singing in Quebec bars. In "Seul avec vou", Garou's interpretations of "You can leave your hat on" and "R&B Medley" alone are worth the price. Garou's rough, husky voice has incredible power and range. He is quite adaptable at singing emotional ballads such as "Que L'amour Est Violent", "Je N'attendais Que Vous", "Demande Au Soleil","L'adieu"; R&B songs such as "Unchain My Heart", "Georgia" and "Power of Love" as well as pop tunes such as "Gitan", "Seul", "Au Plaisir De Ton Corps". His unique voice, charisma, naiveté and genuinely down to earth attitude combined together - must be seen to be appreciated. Live shows are simply fantastic!

5 out of 5 stars What a great voice!.......2002-11-10

Powerful and masculine, yet perfect to express passion. "Seul avec vous" is one of my most listened to CDs.

5 out of 5 stars Great CD.......2002-11-10

The CD was recorded during Garou's 2001 tour in France. It captured the essence of his live performance with bonus sound track "Stone". Great CD!

5 out of 5 stars Garou Rocks!.......2002-02-22

This CD is a faithful reproduction of Garou live. We saw him in Montreal in late fall 2001 and the show was fantastic!

The CD is about 60% french, 40% english.

His version of Joe Cocker's hit "You Can Leave Your Hat On" should not be missed.

Garou became famous in the French Musical "Notre-Dame-De-Paris" and includes a version of "Belle" where the first verse is sung in French, the second in English, the third in Spanish, and the last with the audience.
